synopsis
A truly clever short feature in which Charley Chase (who also co-directed) plays four siblings, each one in a different profession and with his own personality quirks -- a fact that drives the girlfriend of one of them (played by Betty Mack) to distraction trying to keep the whole family straight in her mind. The multiplicities start building, arithmetically and then geometrically, in a great sight gag for the final fade-out. Look for the Our Gang/Little Rascals star Matthew "Stymie" Beard in a small role in one scene.
